Visit Bergamo: Italy’s Top Cultural Destination For 2023
Bergamo, Italy’s Capital of Culture in 2023
Meanwhile, the coveted title is given to cities that have historically contributed to Italian identity and culture in general. Previous award holders include beautiful Parma and upcoming tourist destinations, like Procida, a small island in the Bay of Naples.
This beautiful destination is often overlooked by travelers in Northern Italy, as they head to Milan or Lake Garda or Lake Como. In fact, Bergamo receives only around 2 million visitors each year. While that might sound a lot, when you consider that Italy received an amazing 64.8 visitors in 2022, it is only a tiny portion of the pie.
